Editor Home and Farm:
After ali is said, there is more

worn and run down, and gets too
poor to set flax without turning it
over often. When it changes

other ifthe right man takes hold.
There are old men, farmers for
fifty or sixty years, who don't I'm.
derstand how to cultivate corn to
make it success. l know some
farmers who will not plow corn
when it is dry weather simply be>
cause it has no weeds or grass in it.
Their idea is when clean it don't
need string. But as the dry
weather increases, the cultivator
should go the moro. If your
ground is well and deep plowed
early, and your ground well me-
lowed before planting. with the
proper use of the cultivator there
can be fair crops made in the dry
est seasons. Never plow too deep
after first blowing, for the roots
need compact earth to hold mois-
ture. Where there is no moisture
there is no possible means of plant
roots getting a drink, for that is the
way they live, and ifthe one means
of substance is cut off, how soon
you see the effect in parched blades.

hard clods; they will absorb all the
available moisture at night, and
the sun will extract it in the day,
so the plant is robbed by the de-
grees of the supply. Drilled corn

weather with better results. There
is a strip of roots that is not bro

The Power of his Eye.
Paris Letter.

A story is told of Van Amburg,
the great lion tanner, now dead.
On one occasion, while in a bar
room, he was asked how ne got his
wonderful power over animals.
He said:
at is by showing them that I'm
not the least afraid of them, and
by keeping my eye steadily or
theirs. I'll give you an example
of the power OF my eye" Points
ing to a loutish fellow who was
sitting opposite, Van Amburg said:
"You see that fellow? He is a
regular clown. I'll make him
come across the room to me, and /
won't say a word to him." Sitting
down he fixed his keen, steady eye
on the man. Presently the fellow
Strengthened himself gradually, got
up and came acros to Van AM

he drew back his arm and struck
the tanner a tremendous blow un.

EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: Noticing q
few weeks ago the kindly invitation which
appeared in your columns for communications
from any societies working in aid of the Grand
Army, / thought few words from California
might be read with interest by many of the
readers of your good paper. And right here let
me say, no more welcome visitor comes weekly
to our home than THE NATIONAL TRIBUNE.
With pleasure we note how earnestly you es-
pouse anything which tends to the good of the
Grand Army. Working here on these sunny
Pacific slopes are the Ladies of the GAR"
We come from the home circle OF the old sol
diers, bringing into our Order all the interest
and love Of kindred ties, and doing that, /
hardly need to say, we make it a noble success
Finding plenty to do on this coast, where so
many old veterans have drlfted away from
their families and the friends of earlier days.
taking care of the widow and the orphan, we
go to them with hearts aglOw with loyalty and
love, ever encouraged in our blessed work by
the veterans of the Grand Army, who feel it is
our sacred right to cheer their declining days
and ours and our sons and daughters to keep
their graves and memories green.
The Department of California, Ladies of the
GAR, held its annual convention in this city
Thursday and Friday, the 9th and 18th of
January. Two pleasant days were spent dis
cussing how best To further the aims and OBJ
ects Of our Order and in the election of officers
for the ensuing year. The following were
elected and installed by Past Department Pres

We take up our work for the ensuing year
with the most cheering prospects, and earnestly
hope the day is drawing near when from the
eastern borders to our sunset land there shall
be no homeless veteran seeking shelter in our
County hospitals, or widows or orphans whose
wants are unheard May our fair land be dot
ted with its soldiers homes, glorious tribute
of grateful people to its loyal sons
